Fort Worth daily gazette. (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1882-1891, 1887-11-13
COLONEL A. II. BRITTON

The withdrawal of Colonel A. NJ. Brit
ton from the City National Bank, with the
sale of all his interest therein recalls the
liberal disposition of the gentleman to-
wards public enterprises in Fort Worth.
THE GAZETTE is not authorized to pub
fish Colonel Britton's intentions, al
though we have heard that he has
been shaping his affairs for some
time towards an Investment
that afforded wide scope for his abilities.
Colonel Brltton's identity with the growth
of Fort Worth as banker and capitalist,
has been highly complimentary to his
ability and public spirit, and with great
full recollections of the past, there will be
regret that his interests sever
relations in which he has been
a factor In the public progress and
a friend to private enterprise. With
him will go cordial wishes for continued
and further successes. He left the bank
ing institution to which he gave such
faithful service in excellent hands, and
he doubtless postponed his actions until
he could do this. THE GAZETTE joins

on which the town stands was q cotton
field last year. Embree is noted for three
things: her pretty girls, rapid growth,
and her clio: e proximity TO Duck Creek,
the station, on the Dallas and Greenyille
Railroad, which crosses the SAINTS Fe
at this point. The town has made two
attempts to incorporate, but has
been as many times cneckmated by it's
wouldoe rival, every man being restrained
from exercising the "grest American
privilege" by having q writ CT injunction
served upon him, and as 9 third sttemBt
to hold an election to vote incorporation
comes OF Saturday, Dallas deputies are
expected out on the evening before the
election TO serve other Injunction papers.
The election will be held, however, and
the legality tested afterwards. Much
hard feeling exists on account of Duck
Creeks persistency in trying TO prevent
this town from becoming a corporate
body, and all conservative people de ire
the matter settled. As the matter now
stands the injunction suit brought ~
Duck Creek vs.. Embree, Is likely to be
carried to the Supreme court, the Dis
trict Judge having ruled against the
plaintiffs, and il they succeed in gaining
another order restraining the town from
voting, that will make the case alI the more
complicated. DESPITE the drawbacks the
town has made rspid progress since last
January, and almost every line Of bust
ness is represented here.
A move is on foot to build large
school building, which will be q great
blessing, SIS il is utterly impossible TO
have graded school in the old buildings,
which are too far distant to be claimed SIS
belonging to the town.

THE Washington Republican is usually
accurate, but sometimes, when a little
coloring is necessary to give force and
character to the picture, the coloring is
forthcoming. In speaking Of the Louis
itna labor troubles, the Republican says:
Immediately, and without call from
the civil authorities of the parishes, Gov
ernor McEnery ordered troops with 8
Gatling gun to the "Teche" county, and
there men have been forced, at the point
of the bsyonet and the muzzle of Cat
ling gun, to return to work .t the wages
dictated by the sugar planters, behind
whom is the power OF the state
of Louisiana" That military force was
seat by the Governor of Loulsiana when
he was called upon by the constituted au
thorities of the several counties has not
been denied, but that the strikers were
compelled to "return to work at the
point of the bayonet and muzzle Of the
G.tling-gun, and st the wages dictated BY
the sugar planters" is miserable false
hood. The strikers were not molestet
nor asked to go to work. They were
prevented from molesting non-unior
men who desired to work, and that was
the extent Of the services performed b!
